WNBA Finals 2018: Five storylines to follow in the Mystics vs. Storm series

The Mystics will play the Storm in the 2018 WNBA Finals which begin Friday night. Here are some interesting storylines to follow:

  1. The Mystics will go for their first WNBA title in their first Finals appearance - The Mystics are best known in the WNBA as a perennial bottom feeder that considers mediocrity a success. After all, they only had one 20-win regular season before this year. Now, they tied a franchise best 22 wins AND advanced to the Finals in an exciting series against the Dream.
  2. The Mystics match up well against Seattle with their starting lineups - The Storm are led by franchise point guard Sue Bird who plays alongside Jewell Loyd in the backcourt.
